Dots 1 3 chord with space bar puts you in keyboard help. Pressing key 
combinations will have VO announce the command. Pressing dots 1 2 chord exits 
keyboard help.

There are two ways to press enter. Dot 8 is the standard. Dots 1 5 chord also 
works.

Dot 7 space bar is delete. Dots 1 4 5 is also delete.

Dots 7 and 8 have no meaning in contracted Braille. It is interesting that 
either dot pressed by itself is space.
